Birla Cellulose, one of the global leaders in man-made cellulose fibre (MMCF), has achieved a breakthrough in manufacturing viscose fibre using pre-consumer cotton fabric waste.
Every year, 80 billion garments are made globally generating 1.3 billion tonnes of fabric waste, and nearly 75 per cent of global fabric waste is discarded untreated and this waste either end up in landfills or is burnt thereby polluting water and land alike.
